fltk anyone? + packaging questions



Hi,

   Is anybody working on packaging fltk? I checked wnpp, but it's
 still listed as a needed package. I've gotten sick of gtk's lack of
 decent documentation (I could write something, but you have to really
 dive into it if you want to write anything usable) and due to xforms'
 and Qt's non-freeness I (don't want to|can't) use any of them. fltk
 has another advantage over gtk from my point of view: it has
 (real|decent) OpenGL support.

 Since it seems like I'm in need of this library, I wouldn't mind
 packaging it, but I have one simple question:

 What do I do with forms.h? It's the file that provides drop-in
 compatibility with the x?forms library, and I'd guess many ppl
 would like to see that file included. Don't get the wrong impression,
 the file says:

 $ cat forms.h 
 // this file allows some forms programs to be compiled with no change.
 // put it in your include path.
 #include <FL/forms.H>

 the headers are installed on /usr/X11R6/include/FL, I'm tempted to
 put forms.h in /usr/X11R6/include/forms.h. I can't put it on
 /usr/X11R6/include/X11 because libxforms-dev puts its files there,
 and there's no reason to make fltk conflict with xforms

 That's the only thing left to release the package...
